Game of Thrones: The Strongest Guoguang

Chapter 169 Treaty of Equality and Mutual Assistance

The Tyroshi thought for a while and still did not leave the negotiating table.

The son of the sea king is right, Targaryen has hostages in his hands, and they cannot let the noble relatives in the city ignore them. If they do so, the seat of the Supreme Council will lose its value.

Now the situation has been reversed. Previously, the Tyroshi governors wanted to make peace, but the Myr and Lysians did not support it.

Now Myr and Rhys support a peaceful return, but the Tyroshi would rather fight the Targaryen.

Because the treaty given by Rhaenyla is really too much!

The Tailo people tremblingly picked up the "Equality and Mutual Assistance" treaty, and every time their eyes glanced at one, the fists in their hands were clenched:
Tyroshi Bank declares bankruptcy and is replaced by Seven Nations Bank.

The Tylosi shipyard and docks were burned down, but Targaryen can help rebuild them in the form of shares, and collect customs business taxes at the same time.

The Tri-Cities Alliance will cede the Stepstones.

The seven nations acquired one-third of the disputed land.

Freed slaves from the Targaryen are not held accountable.

Tailosi opened its treaty ports and concessions to the seven royal families. Merchants and nobles from the seven countries enjoy some tax exemptions. High-ranking nobles violated the law and were handed over to the seven countries for trial.

Tyrosh allowed the troops of the Seven Kingdoms to be stationed and recognized the new Grand Duke as legitimate.

...

Obviously, after this military strike, Tyrosh was about to lose his strength.

But that Westeros woman is not ready to let them go. Once taxation, finance, and even the army intervene, it is not certain whose territory Tyrosh belongs to!

Especially the sea tax. You must know that most of the profits of each trading city-state come from the seaport and wharf.

If you do not sell goods locally, you will only be charged the berthing fee for sea-going ships. The larger the ship, the larger the dock area it occupies, and the higher the price will naturally be.

As Dorn businessman Victor once introduced, if his three big ships enter the Tailosi Wharf, the one-day mooring fee will cost more than 10 gold coins. About three gold dragons.

This is still relatively cheap, and the price of the trading city-state is like this.

And the business tax is also very expensive, and even Grand Duke Tyrosh has to take a commission.

This is because the profit of the big voyage is too high!Smart businessmen keep buying low and selling high at major ports, and the profit rate can generally reach a hundred times in one trip.

In the past, Corles, the sea snake, relied on nine voyages to become the richest man in the Seven Kingdoms in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the trading city-state is inseparable from the support of merchants, and must suck the blood of these merchants to maintain its status.

The sea tax is already the lifeblood, plus slaves, the Stone Step Islands, the disputed land... The faces of the governors of Tyroshi turned black, and the anger was almost burning to the forehead.

This woman still wants to get involved in the controversial land? !How dare you!

As for the new Grand Duke of Tailosi, the governors didn't pay attention to it. This is already a small problem.

"Gentlemen!" Francis, the son of the sea king, stroked his beard. His waxed beard spread out to both sides like the wings of a seagull.

"Here we come," said the Tyrosh governors to themselves, bloody Braavosi!He turned out to be an accomplice of the barbarians of Westeros.

In fact, the nobles of the trading city-states all knew Francis' urine.

He is very greedy and good at squandering, he is the "prodigal son" of Hai Wang's family!And always been spoiled.

It must be that the Seven Kingdoms gave him some benefits, so he came here to matchmaking and sold Tyrosh.

The governors burst into tears in their hearts. Their wealth and territory have been taken away, and now they even lose face, just like a roast suckling pig on the table. carve up.

"Ahem, it's like this, although the Targaryen treaty seems overbearing and unreasonable.

But there are still some redeeming qualities. "

Francis smacked his mouth and touched the delicate glass in his hand.

The glass had just been taken out of the crate by the servants, and the wooden box from the docks contained 52 glasses—26 pairs, to be precise.

Each pair has its own unique shape and purpose, ranging from pot-bellied spherical glasses for Dornish red wines to thin-stem glasses designed for drinking brightly colored custard ciders.

It was one of the gifts Rhaenyla gave him, and it came from the collection of the Grand Duke's mansion. Francis once came to ask for it, but failed to buy it.

Rhaenyla had heard the news and did what she liked, which made him very satisfied.

"Tyroshi's bank is completely useless, reduced to ruins! Mercenaries and pirates have taken it all, so it must be rebuilt!
Our Braavos Iron Bank will also participate in the construction of this new bank and hold a certain share. Governor Tyrosh thinks about it, huh? "

"Pirates? Bah!" The governors cursed in their hearts. Everyone knew who robbed the bank.

"The Stone Step Islands and the disputed land..." Francis smacked his lips, "Now everyone doesn't support the war, the six-headed dragon... tsk tsk, just pay the compensation, anyway, it's a barren land, where pirates breed, maybe After a few years, Targaryen will return it if he doesn't want it anymore!"

"The place of dispute is easier to handle!

Don't the Tyroshi governors occupy one-third of the territory, so just pay the Westeros.

Anyway, you can't keep it now..."

The people of Myr and Lys have different expressions, ahem, they have the idea of ​​expelling Tyrosh.

But firstly, Prince Mir's misjudgment was the main factor for the defeat of the war, which made Governor Mir unable to lift his head in the parliament.

Second, Reese's reinforcements were repulsed by Daemon and the Western Fleet, causing heavy losses.

This made them reluctantly agree with Francis' point of view.

"As for slaves and sea taxes...We don't have slaves in Braavos either, but we have more binding powers."

If Rhaenyla was here, she would laugh too: the free men in the shipyard refused to go with her, so she would squeeze them in the same way as in the trading city-state. As long as she is the major shareholder of the shipyard, the free craftsmen will not be able to escape palm.

"Tylosi was destroyed, and the merchants suffered heavy losses. How much tax can they still get? Besides, the Stone Step Islands are nearby, and Tyroshi's army is just for display..."

Francis tried his best to persuade the frowning Governor Tyroshi.

But what was on his mind was the gifts that Rhaenyla had "gifted" to him.

This is bribery, the two of them knew it well and reached a tacit understanding.

Although the son of Neptune is extremely greedy, he is respected for one thing, that is, he takes money to do things and speaks of credibility!

This is also the truth that people in every trading city-state believe in, although reputation is only a tool used to obtain more benefits.

In addition, he also received bank deposits and some business shares from the Grand Duke Tyrosh and several noble families in the city-states of Lys and Mill.

That's a lot of money!
In fact, the Governors of Mill and Lys of the Supreme Council also received such gifts, but most of them were deposits and properties of Braavos.

Rhaenyra is actually "empty-handed."

These notes, contracts... Even if Rhaenila is taken to the city-state, they will not honor her, but it is different in the hands of these people. Rhaenila also "intimately" sorts the gifts - so that it will not, It is meaningless for one's own family to take one's own property.

Rhaenila consumes these tasteless contract documents, and other city-states can also drink soup in Tylosi, which is great!
This is the consensus of most people, so now the Supreme Council is calm, and the governors are still alive, and it seems that it has nothing to do with them.

Except for the pale-faced Governor Tyroshi, they are alone!
